ok here's a little some thing that might be able to help you out
here's 2 6,500K CFLs that I can buy. I will show the watts and the lums
15w CFL = 900 lumes = 60 lumes per watt
45w CFL = 3,000 Lumes = 66.66 lumes per watt
as you can see the 45w CFL is the better one out of thoes 2 for the...
I will be building 2 grow boxes , 1 for flowering 1 for veg like I said I will be doing work on my room so nothing is gonna be where they are right now and maybe a 3rd one for clones when I get there
Truely said if you can get your hands on some 96% reflective mylar and either cardboard or wood and build a reflective hood kinda like the ones for HPS and MH and have the CLFs mounded horizontal to cover more area and use most of what the CLF gives off:leaf:
- CFLs should be about 2 inches from the tops 3 inches at most
- Only water when the top inch of the soil is dry
- Have a fan blowing on the plants to make their stock stronger
- Use 2,700K lights for flowering and not the 6,500K lights
you might be able to harvest 1 pond of weed every month with CFLs if you have the right strains and don't have a hole batch of plants flowering at once and replace them all once harvest at once and you'd have to grow the strain enough to know how much time it takes from the start of 12/12 to...
6,500K is for veg
2,700K is for flowering
alot of people like to mix and match them while useing CLFs
2 to 1 lighting depending on the stage
Edit -
- Water your plants from the top and not the bottom
- Never start giving your plants plant food till they are at least 3 - 4 weeks old and...
Nice grow bro. I havent started yet but I should have it up and running at least half a** but running. I would have used some thing else for dividing them that isn't cardboard since that does decay and get moldy over time and has chemicles in it that could harm your plants.
